I was thinking more about the ever expanding volume of the tool stash. Around here $40 can get you a laundry basket of old tools, so I have literally lost track of how many duplicates I have in bench and joinery planes.

In annexed countries (the Lorraine part of France and Poland spring to mind), the Nazi regime interfered with religious cult but not in Germany itself.

There are very detailed yearly statistics for church association in Germany as the state was collecting tax and redistributing the revenue to the appropriate denomination based on declared association of the citizen. The church rolls did drop during the Nazi era but we're talking about something like 3.5% of the population between 1933 and 1939, with an extra 0.9% between 1939 and 1944, leaving their denomination to become part of the Gottgläubig religious movement.

I hadn't seen that specific variation of the scissor hinge, but it's definitely bent out of shape. You can try gently hammering it back to flat as it's highly unlikely you'll find a fitting replacement (it was made between 1891 and 1952 based on the trademark stamp).

This is correct... Germans call the workbench "Hobelbank" (Plane-Bench). However, a whole lot of German benches have a convenient stop on the right side of the bench, lined with the tool well, for cross-cutting boards.

I'd also add that the high price of electricity doesn't help. I have lived 10 years in Rheinland-Pfalz and I have only met 3 people with a woodworking workshop. They were however using combination machines. You can find used sliding table saws cheap enough, but once you factor in the running costs and the required space... it's a losing proposition for a hobbyist. The table saws in the big box stores are geared towards the house building/renovation market and not the hobby woodworker.

The "32. BImSchV" rules also pretty much kill hobby woodworking if your workshop is in a residential area: no power tools (band saw, table saw, planer, compressor, ...) between 8pm and 7am Monday to Saturday, or at all on Sunday/holiday.

It does sound like it... OP may need to slowly increase the reps/sets until he can do what's in his current program.

I've had similar issues in the past. I can do bars/ring/hanging knee/leg raises and bars/hanging l-sits and the quads are the limit, but floor l-sits triggered abs spams after 10 seconds. Doing more l-sits of sub-failure duration, spread through the day got me through.

The OHP stall is indeed at 2/3 of my current bench press. They were close to equal when OHP started stalling. The bench press kept progressing at 2.2lbs per session in the last 2 months while my OHP was stationary at best. My squat has been progressing at 7lbs per session and my deadlift has been progressing by 11lbs per session.

I'm going to progressively bump up my calorie intake to see if it helps :)

I've been doing keto, at a slight cut, coupled with Phraks from the 1st of January. My lifts have progressed nicely but I feel like I'm now reaching the limit of the fast progress at my current calories count. I'm considering increasing the calorie count to milk whatever noob gains I still have left.

Higdon is a 5 days a week plan based on the following pattern: rest day, short run day, short non-running activity day, short run day, rest day, long non-running activity day, long run day. The short runs and short non-running activities will be fairly static during the plan and all the gains will be on the long days.

I had to stop keto for a week due to either food poisoning or an allergic reaction to oysters (or squid)... On the bright side, I actually hit my 100GW last Tuesday before visiting the doctor. On the less bright side, I was unable to lift for a week, had to deload some lifts last night, and have bounced back to 94kg.
